Sonos controllers connect to SonosNet of your nearest zone player. However, your iPad/iPhone connects to your wifi router. e.g I have an S5 (Play5) in my workshop connected using ethernet over power. While I’m in the workshop, at the bottom of the garden, I can only control using the dedicated Sonos controller (which talks wirelessly to the S5), but not iPad/iPhone (which talks wirelessly to the router in the house, and hence way out of range)

The CR200’s touch screen is missing some feeling though, but the buttons are nice to have. Anyway – I understand Sonos, and now I will probably mount one or two cheap or a used 8-10 inch tablets on the walls.
